Etemenanki (Sumerian: ๐๐ผ๐ญ๐ , romanized: ร.TEMEN.AN.KI, lit. 'Temple of the Foundation of Heaven and Earth') was a Babylonian ziggurat dedicated to the Mesopotamian god Marduk. It is now in ruins, which are located about 90 kilometres (56 mi) south of Baghdad. Some scholars have proposed Etemenanki as the ziggurat that may have influenced the biblical account of the Tower of Babel.
